You might be a new head, experienced senior leader, TA, site manager, teacher, SENCO, SBM or governor and curious to learn more about the role of leadership in a CE school. This course looks at the characteristics of a leader of a church school, whether leading across a whole school, a group of staff or volunteers and therefore having a role in setting and/or promoting vision and staff contribution to this. Together, we will:
- reflect on why you have taken a leadership position in a Church of England school over any other school
- consider whether there is any such thing as ‘christian’ leadership, such as spiritual, servant or ‘rabbi’ teaching leadership
- think about whether personal faith or mind-set makes any difference in church school leadership
- a run through of christian distinctiveness’, Collective worship, SIAMS etc if delegates would appreciate this
- hear from and ask questions of established leaders in CE schools, and learn how to thrive and really enjoy the role
- build confidence to know how and where to ask for and receive educational and pastoral support
